Oral Cancer Screening

Comprehensive Oral Cancer Screening

At Gardena Family Dental, your overall health and well-being are of utmost importance to us. That’s why we offer comprehensive oral cancer screenings as a part of our commitment to your complete oral health. Oral cancer, when detected early, is highly treatable. Our advanced screening procedures can help catch potential issues in their earliest stages, providing you with peace of mind and a proactive approach to your health.

The Importance of Oral Cancer Screening

Oral cancer includes cancers of the mouth, throat, lips, and tongue. Early detection of oral cancer is vital, as it greatly improves the chances of successful treatment. During your oral cancer screening at Gardena Family Dental, you can expect the following:
Visual Examination
Our dentists will carefully inspect the oral cavity, looking for any abnormalities in the appearance of the tissues.
Tactile Examination
Using gloved hands, we will feel for lumps or irregularities in the mouth, neck, and throat.
Advanced Tools
In addition to the visual and tactile examination, we may use advanced tools like VELscope or oral cancer screening devices to identify potential areas of concern.
Patient Education
We believe in empowering our patients with knowledge. We’ll explain the purpose of the screening, discuss any findings, and address any questions or concerns you may have.

Remember that early detection is the key to successful treatment. Even if you don’t have any risk factors, routine oral cancer screenings are essential for maintaining your oral and overall health. If you do have risk factors, such as tobacco or alcohol use or a family history of cancer, these screenings become even more critical.
